Harsh J resolved MAPREDUCE-236. ------------------------------- Resolution: Not A Problem I don't see this to be a problem anymore. We need to build that jar up and place it on the (D)FS, if I understand what he's talking about, so URL does not make sense. > mapred.jar property in a job configuration file handles only absolute path > into the local file system > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-236 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-236 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Thomas Friol > Assignee: Owen O'Malley > > Why does this property does not handle URL ? > I think it could be more comfortable to specify the URL of a jar instead of > an absolute path in the local file system. > It also could be great to be able to specify a path relative to the job > configuration file. > WDYT ? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
